In reply to the discussion: Thousands of JFK assassination documents have just been made public [View all]Slammer
(714 posts)27. JFK "assassination"
That's not what happened at all.
The event was an operation so that JFK could fake his death and run off with Marylin Monroe (who had faked her own death the previous year).
Johnson was in on it since he was to run the coverup and as a bonus would get to be president.
However, Johnson was worried that the fake-out would be discovered and double-crossed JFK, having both him and Monroe killed.
JFK and Monroe's bodies were originally moved and hidden to close to LBJ's childhood home in south Texas. But they were moved back to the Dallas area in 1964 and were deposited under what would shortly afterward become the lakebed of Lake Ray Hubbard.

Cool. Will it change the fact that LHO was solely responsible for JFK and JD Tippit's murders?

You don't understand, JFK HAD to have been killed by a conspiracy worthy of his importance.

What got me was how GHWB claimed he "couldn't remember" where he was that day.

The Zapruder film shows that the kill shot jerked the head back not forward.
